governor cuomo came down, i was at the meeting. he met with the speaker. governor kristi came down, mayor bloomberg came down. he met with the majority leader. we were asked to submit detailed document. they all submitted absolute documentation. when we asked is there anything else required? no. you have given us all we need. when the bill came from the senate we were told there was some pork in the bill. that was taken out of the bill. the bill was going to be voted on on the house floor was exactly in compliance what the republican leadership asked us to do. let me just say at this time in my dealings with him, majority leader cantor has been very straightforward, very direct. last night i know that he was fighting to get the bill on the calendar. it was the speaker, for whatever reason, walked off the floor and said that the bill was being pulled. i don't enjoy saying this. i consider myself a personal friend of john boehner. and john boehner personally has been very helpful to me over the years. it pains me to say this. but the fact is dismissive attit

. >> we in the delegation, our governor, governor christie, governor cuomo, mayor bloomberg, republicans and democrats, we all understood that we had a commitment and we had a deal, that after the fiscal cliff vote we would in fact be voting on the sandy relief bill. lori: i understand you really got into it with the speaker. resulted in an actual shouting match. did it get that heated? >> i'm not going to comment on that. i'm going to comment that we need ad result. the day after katrina there was $60 billion released within 10 days. we have people that are hurting. we have people whose lives were ripped apart. we have people who lost everything. we have people who are pinning their hopes on the federal government coming in and doing what they have done for every other disaster community across the country. now we're at a desperate stage. lori: want to ask you if you just voted for, for speaker of the house boehner in his re-election? >> yes, i did. lori: you did. obviously you were pleased with the decision for him to turn around and hold a vote today, i'm sorry, the relief now? >> yes
